Yep...and that is far from the only situation where it is used.

Inciting and preying on a fear, has always been the single easiest manipulation...to make people do what you want them to do.

It's sad that it works so well and that so many otherwise "normal" folks...fall for it.

The antidote is primarily research...and relying on actual facts.
